A Focus Fusion Update About the Lawrenceville Plasma Physics Fusion Effort
June 17, 2010 | 7 Comments
Eric Lerner’s Focus Fusion team let go a little information at Focusfusion.org on the progress. While not a milestone, for those watching with interest the posting is welcome news. The Lawrenceville plan for the current course is made of eight steps: Get the machine to pinch, i.e. achieve a focusing of the input energy – […]

Better Than Expected Results From Focus Fusion
April 13, 2010 | 25 Comments
Eric Lerner’s Lawrenceville Plasma Physics (LLP) is developing a dense plasma focus fusion reactor, to use proton-boron (pB11) fuel. Lerner’s work was initially funded by NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory and is now investor-funded. The project is aiming to produce an extremely economical, compact, environmentally safe and essentially inexhaustible source of energy. The projections can get […]

The Focus Fusion Interview with Eric Lerner
July 2, 2009 | 6 Comments
Sander Olson has interviewed Eric Lerner who is famed for his leadership and innovations that form the Focus Fusion Society. The society is a charitable organization attempting to develop the focus fusion technology ideas and concepts into commercial reactors. Sander Olson is a journalist with a good, and it seems to me, quirky reputation. But […]

Wringing Fusion From A Twist
December 19, 2008 | 14 Comments
Eric Lerner may well twist a few bands of electric arc and their magnetic fields to wring fusion for a lot of energy output with Focus Fusion. As an admirer of Dr. Bussard I have a “heads up” for fusion alternatives to ITER with its tokamak built out of an old Soviet idea that would […]
